> the API was hallucinated

If the answer is from 8 years ago, did the API change between then and now? Or was the answer for the same version that you are using?

It didn’t change, the functionality was never there. The API only ever existed in that answer, otherwise a Microsoft API would have left traces elsewhere on the Internet.
Why would someone make up an API in an SO answer?
Maybe mistook Java for being C# or PHP and replied with another language and framework in mind. Just guessing, I am. Or wrote pseudo code, but forgot to mention this?
